Link Between Actos & Bladder Cancer

Pioglitazone, branded as Actos in the United States, is used to treat Type
2 diabetes. It was approved in 1999 by the FDA and distributed in the
U.S. by Takeda Pharmaceuticals and Eli Lilly and Company. It is available
as oral tablets in a range of doses.

In 2011, the FDA issued a safety warning about Actos. The FDA warned that
use of Actos for more than one year may be associated with an increased
risk of bladder cancer. That same year, Takeda issued a recall of the
drug in France. The drug has not been recalled in the U.S.
